Histoire
Los Angeles, 1943. As the Allies beat back the Nazis in the Mediterranean and the United States military slowly closes in on Tokyo, Walt Disney cranks out wartime propaganda and the Cocoanut Grove is alive with jazz and swing every night. But behind this sunny façade lies a darker reality. Up in the lush foothills of Hollywood, a woman floats lifeless in the pool of one of California’s trendiest hotels. When Maggie Hope learns that this woman was engaged to her former fiancée, John Sterling, and that he suspects her death was no accident, intuition tells her he’s right.

Histoire
World War II has finally come home to Britain, but it takes more than nightly air raids to rattle intrepid spy and expert code breaker Maggie Hope. After serving as a secret agent to protect Princess Elizabeth at Windsor Castle, Maggie is now an elite member of the Special Operations Executive–a black ops organization designed to aid the British effort abroad–and her first assignment sends her straight into Nazi-controlled Berlin, the very heart of the German war machine. Relying on her quick wit and keen instincts, Maggie infiltrates the highest level of Berlin society, gathering information to pass on to London headquarters. But the secrets she unveils will expose a darker, more dangerous side of the war–and of her own past.

Maggie Hope has come a long way since serving as a typist for Winston Churchill. Now she's working undercover for the Special Operations Executive in the elegant but eerily silent city of Paris, where SS officers prowl the streets in their Mercedes and the Ritz is draped with swastika banners. Walking among the enemy is tense and terrifying, and even though she's disguised in chic Chanel, Maggie can't help longing for home.

London, 1940: Winston Churchill has just been sworn in, war rages across the Channel, and the threat of a Blitz looms larger by the day. But none of this deters Maggie Hope. She graduated at the top of her college class and possesses all the skills of the finest minds in British intelligence, but her gender qualifies her only to be the newest typist at No. 10 Downing Street. Her indefatigable spirit and gifts for codebreaking, though, rival those of even the highest men in government, and Maggie finds that working for the prime minister affords her a level of clearance she could never have imagined....

Description
A series of baffling murders among a group of imprisoned agents threatens the outcome of World War II in this chilling mystery from the New York Times best-selling author of Mr. Churchill’s Secretary.
November, 1942. World War II is raging, and former spy Maggie Hope knows too much: what the British government is willing to do to keep its secrets, who is lying, who the double-crossers are. She knows exactly who is sending agents to their deaths. These are the reasons Maggie is isolated on a remote Scottish island, in a prison known as Killoch Castle.
When one of her fellow inmates drops dead in the middle of his after-dinner drink - he’s only the first. As victims fall one by one, Maggie will have to call upon all her wits and skills to escape - not just certain death...but certain murder.
For what’s the most important thing Maggie Hope knows?
She must survive.
Praise for The Prisoner in the Castle:
“The colonel sums it up best on page 10: ‘If you take a pretty girl and teach her how to kill, it can cause problems.’ Not just problems - electrifying action and nonstop surprises. I loved this book!” (R. L. Stine, author of the Goosebumps and Fear Street series)
"One pleasure of a mystery series is connecting with a character that changes and grows with each novel.... Maggie's intelligence and loyalty to the war effort continue to evolve in [Susan Elia] MacNeal's series.... Solid twists keep the plot of The Prisoner in the Castle churning until the surprise finale." (Associated Press)
"Evocative." (Publishers Weekly)
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Another literary tour de force... From the book's perfectly calibrated plot to its incisively etched characters, everything is handled with perfect finesse by the author." (Poisoned Pen Newsletter)
"A mystery...tailor-made for readers in the post-election, #MeToo era.... If you love a tricky puzzle that requires you to keep track of multiple alibis over time, this is your summer read." (The Washington Post)
"MacNeal uses [Agatha] Christie's And Then There Were None as a framework for a character-driven mystery/thriller that successfully emulates the original." (Kirkus Reviews)

Best one yet?
I read the whole series finishing just in time to listen to this addition when it was released. I think it might be my favorite yet! I am now sad to have to wait another year for the next one. It was different than the previous novels, being much more a mystery and taking cues from classic Agatha Christie. The social justice themes were a little lighter in this book than previously in the series as well, as well as coinciding historical events.
I don't understand the hate for this narrator. She does a fine job. I actually thought the narrator for the first book, Mr. Churchill's Secretary was hard to listen to/understand and was glad that a new narrator was picked up for the rest of them.

Annoying narration
Why do I keep forgetting how much I don’t care for this narrator? Maggie deserves a better voice. The author deserves a better presentation. I will try to remember to read the next book rather than listen to it.
The book was just missing “It was a dark and stormy night.” This was Agatha Christie-like and, frankly, I expected better. I’m glad so many liked this book because Susan MacNeal puts a lot into each book.
Maggie is trapped on a Scottish island with other agents before murder and mayhem ensue á la Ms Christie. This was not my favorite.

Maggie in prison for doing her job well and not talking.
I was disappointed in the ending as it was the same as two of her other books. One being a plane and the other a boat. O surprise. As to how she was going to get out this.

Good, but not my favorite
I really enjoy the Maggie hope series, and I enjoyed this one too. I think this one was my least favorite to date (and re-listened to the first 7 in the two weeks before I “read” this one). But impressive to keep all of Ms Hope’s adventures new and different.

Dumb spies
i have always enjoyed the Maggie Hope series but this one left me scratching my head in amazment as to how dumb a bunch of supposedly highly trained spies can be. The murders start and everyone goes their separate ways instead of sticking together. the murders grow and everyone goes their separate ways instead of staying together. the murders continue and they finally talk about sticking together then the go their separate ways. the murders continue (yes there a lot of murders in this story) and finally decide it would be a good thing to stuck together, they gather, then go their separate ways.

The worst book in the series.
All of the Maggie Hope stories have been excellent. I was looking forward to this latest one and was disappointed. This was really simple, not very believable and barely held my interest.
Even the characters we have enjoyed were missing from most of the story.
Reread Mrs Roosevelt's Confidante. 10 times better.

Love this narrator
Susan Duerdon’s narration is masterful. At a couple of points inthe book I found myself marveling that this was only one person reading. I’m writing this review because I read other reviewers low rating this narrator. I’m pretty picky and I can’t imagine why they didn’t like her.
